We found in my mother-in-law's possessions at her death a handwritten genealogy list of her family.  The following statement was written: Penina KILGORE married Lish SWINDLE.  He died and she married Jim RUSSELL.  Jim Russell had a daughter named Ann by a previous marriage who married Lish Swindle, Jr.  Penina Kilgore was born 29 Aug 1836 and died 15 Mar 1916 and is buried in Mt. Pleasant Cemetery (Penina and Jim Russell).  I have her father as William Kilgore and her mother Minerva Patton if this is correct.  I have been unable to find a Lish Swindle as it probably is a nickname.  Can anyone help me with the right names.

I am trying to sort out any connection that Sarah C. (last name unknown) who married J.T. (John? T.) Sanders might have to my Fayette Co. group of Livingstons, i.e. Moses Livingston, Jackson Livingston, etc.  J.T. Sanders was born abt 1833, SC.  Sarah C. was b. Oct. 1836.  I believe they married bet. 1853-54. 

I found them as a mar. couple on the 1860 Fayette Co. census:
J.T. Sanders - age 25, b. SC
Sarah - age 24, b. AL William - age 5, b. AL
George - age 2, b. AL

1870 Fayette Co., Pilgrim Rest post office:
J.T. Sanders - age 37, b. SC
S.C. - age 33, b. AL W.W. - age 13, b. AL
G.W. - age 11, b. AL
M.E. - female, age 7, b. AL
M.J. - female, age 3, b. AL

1880- Fayette Co, Lee:
Sanders, John - age 47, b. SC, parents b. SC
Sarah C. - age 43, b. AL, father b. VA, mother b. SC
Mary E. - age 17, b. AL, father b. SC, mother b. AL
Salina M. - age 13, b. AL, father b. SC, mother b. AL
John T. - age 7, b. AL, father b. SC, mother b. AL
Williams, James S. (white male), age 14, hired, b. AL, parents b. SC

1900- Fayette, Lee:
Sanders, J.T. - b. Oct. 1871, age 28, mar. 8 years, b. AL, father b. SC, mother b. AL (This was son J.T., age 7 in 1880)
Lillie - b. Sept. 1870, age 29
Onie - dau., b. Jan. 1892, age 8
Lowenia? - dau., b. Sept. 1894, age 5
Walter - son, b. Dec. 1897, age 3
Sarah - mother, b. Oct. 1836, age 63, widow, mother of 5 children, 4 living, b. AL, parents b. SC

Note the discrepancies of Sarah's parents' birth place.  Sarah was also listed on the 1910 census in her son J.T.'s household.  A copy of her death certificate received from the Alabama Center for Health Statistics was dated Sept. 7, 1910, signed by V. Savage, post office Fayette.  Her date of Death was listed as Sept. 5, 1910, Fayette County, Beat Lee, state of Alabama.  The number of years she resided at the place of death is difficult to read, but it looks like 40.  Her age at death was 74 years, 3 months, and 27 days; she was widowed.  She was buried in the "Sanders Grave Yard."  To further complicate the confusion of the Sarah Livingston and Sanders mix, the 1870 census, on the same page as J.T. Sanders and his wife Sarah, and my group of Livingstons, was the following family: J.A. Sanders - age 18, b. AL S.E. Sanders - age 18, b. AL (b. abt 1852) M.J.R.A.E. - dau., age 8/12 or 11/12, b. AL, b. Feb.  This was Sarah E. Livingston who mar. J.A. Sanders:

Spouse 1: Jas. A. Sanders - Spouse 2: Sarah Livingston - Marriage Date: 15 Jan 1869 - Marriage Place: Fayette - Performed By: Minister - Surety/Perf. Name: J. B. Nabers

Moses Livingston had several daughters, and John T. Sanders and his wife Sarah C. were living near Moses' sons J.N. (Jackson) Livingston and his family, and R.(Richard) C. Livingston and his family.  Sarah Livingston and James A. Sanders were listed next to J.N. Livingston, but she was not his daughter.  I have not been able to account for Moses' daugher "Elender" however the family Bible listed her birth date as Dec. 1835.  1870 census, Fayette Co.- Listed between R.C. Livingston and J.T. Sanders was the J.H. Trim (index shows Srim) family with his wife S.(Sarah)C. Trim, b. SC.  Any relationship, if any to the other families is unknown.  Any assistance in sorting out who these female Livingstons might be will be greatly appreciated.  Pat Dakin

Zelmer HALOMAN was listed in the 1900 census as b. 1888.  I think her name was actually Zelma HOLLIMAN.  Her father was listed in the same census as James Haloman who was born 1858,1859 or maybe 1860.  James was born in Fayette Co.; his father was born in SC and his mother in AL.  There is only 1 Holliman family in the 1860 census with the mother and father born in those states yet James does not appear with them.  I am looking for the father and mother of James to complete my wife's genealogy through the great great grandparents.  Zelma m. David Aught SMITH and both are buried in the Chapel Hill Church cemetery.  David was the father of Walter Lee Smith who sired a base born child by Mary Lee WHEAT - that child is my wife.  If anyone has information on this line or is interested in pursuing the search please contact me.  Thanks, Hugh

I am a descendant of the HOLLIMAN, BAKER, WALKER family. I am particularly interested in Samuel Taylor Walker who I believe is buried by his first wife at Pilgrim's Rest Cemetery. the only thing marking Sam's grave is a couple of rocks.  Where is his military marker???  Sam's dob was 11/14/1821 in Shelby County Al.  He resided in Fayette, Alabama.  He was married to Elizabeth Johnson Walker (dob 10/18/1821).  Samuel enlisted in the confederate army on 9/10/1862 leaving behind his wife and six children (8th AL Regiment, Co I)-one of his children, Martha Jane Walker married John Thomas Holliman (my gg grandfather).  At some point Elizabeth passed away and Samuel remarried a Salina Moss who I think resided in Fayette.  Would like to know more about her...have no info on Salina (would like to know where she is buried).  He married Salina on December 1, 1881.  I visit Fayette often and familiar with most of the cemeteries.  If you have any information regarding Sam, Elizabeth or Salina I would love to hear from you.
